Easiest method of putting ends together for binding...... by far!
 
Most of you have probably seen this, but it was a revelation to me. I bought binding tools 'til I was blue and tried everything to get those final ends together, this changed my life and SO easy, works every time.

this is the method I've been using for years-I've never had a problem with it. I first learned about it on Heather Bailey's website. I use bias binding so I cut the overlap about 1/8 to 3/16 inch shorter to allow for the stretch.

I have used this for all of my bindings as well. I tend to cut it 1/4 inch shorter than the width ( 2-1/4 inch binding width, cut the ends at 2") because the fabric always seems to stretch just a tad.

This is the one I use as well.

How to Bind a Quilt - 6 Simple Steps This demo on you tube is the easiest way I have found and the way I have done it for years, no math involved. I could never get my binding on the other ways.

There's no math involved in the method the OP posted. You just have to know the width of your binding.
